As opposed to Google Play Console, I can't find a way to check the amount of app sales being made in real time. I am not a patient person so I'd like to be able to check this information multiple times throughout the day.
At the moment, I track my website's performance with Google Analytics so I can see how many people visit the app's manual compared to the amount of people who did the same thing 7 days ago. However, this value can vary up to 40% while having the same amount of app sales so it's not a very good indicator.
The app is dependent on a very small footprint so including a framework that tracks usage statistics would be overkill. I only need a way to get notified how many people have opened this app today. Have you implemented this somewhere in your own projects? Or is there even a section for that in iTunesConnect?
You could log an event with Google Analytics called "App Opened" or something where the label is the identifierForVendor. Another option is to create an UUID and store it in
UserDefaults, and use that as the label.By checking the number of events with a unique label you could see the amount of installs.
This wouldn't require you to add a new framework or to implement anything else.
